Death Note, is an edgy thriller based on the original manga series written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata. In Death Note, Light Yagami is a genius high school student who is about to learn about life through a book of death. When a bored shinigami, a god of death, named Ryuk drops a black notebook called a Death Note, Light receives power over life and death with the stroke of a pen.

The consequences of Light's actions will set the world ablaze.
